nyt_games coordinator on HA 2026.10 aborts the whole refresh when the nyt account has wordle history but never played Connections. Connections returns last_played_print_date as "" and mashumaro refuses to parse last_completed as a date, so get_connections() kills the update before Wordle sensors load.

Field "last_completed" of type date in Connections has invalid value ''
 
looks like nyt_games 1.0.1 fixes the never played connections thing, the bump got merged into ha and its tagged for 2026.10.2 so wordle should stop dying with it once that patch drops
